I became a mom for the first time in my early 40s, in 2005. My children were adopted, and while I usually don't announce that at the get-go, I think I need to say it now because throughout my blog I don't use the kids' full names. There's J who was born in 1997 and K who was born in 2002.

Family - it's where your story begins.
